We get post roughly weekly if we're lucky. When I do it sounds like an earthquake with the pile that is delivered. Another example of privatisation going badly wrong and consumers bearing the brunt for corporate greed. My mum was telling me it was cheaper for her to courier a parcel to me via Evri than sending via Royal Mail. Not good.

On Sunday (!) I had 9 items of post delivered (with no deliveries for the 6 preceding days)- the normal letters looked current, the two weeklies were for the Friday before last, and that Friday's weeklies weren't there at all.

I get parcels delivered much as I would expect in 'olden days' - normal letters delivered one day a week only and regular magazines (which used, certainly, to have a lower fee than standard large envelopes) 2 weeks late.

It's (still) a joke.

Post not being delivered to Silvester road again not had any for over a week Again!!! Week before that had a weeks worth delivered at once what is going on again I thought the pay dispute strike etc had been agreed but tbh normal lack of service resumes

    • You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags. 
    • Hi. Can anyone suggest a plumber for the job below? Replace bath tub with a shower enclosure, putting pipes to showerhead behind wall, re-titling damaged/removed tiles Also any idea of the costs involved for the labour as we will buy the items required?
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
